You guys are really idoits lol.

I wont even mention the gold cost work shop who has sued from something like that said above.

Not too mention me being "pulled into line" for using Allstair and my own personal opinion in the same line

I know it sucks guys but to keep SAU safe from possible lawsuits, please be careful about the kind of light you cast on workshops. I'd love as much as anyone else to let you guys say what's on your mind if a workshop has wronged you, but we just can't :P If you really have to say something negative, a simple "I've had some bas experiences with XYZ Performance Racing Workshop Thingo, PM me for details" should do the trick.

Go wherever you like, but at the very least have a talk with Mick first. He's moving to a bigger workshop in a few wks so getting in might be a prob if you want it done right now but he's had good results with a few cars on here, mine included. Also have a word with Noel (FineLine) & see what he's got to say about Mick's work- his numbers were bigger than mine, for the moment anyway :rofl:

Also 4WD isn't a prob with 32's, just pop the fuse & you're good-to-go on any 2WD dyno

Everyone missed the obvious question...

What suburb are you in and how far are you willing to travel???

If its southside then Id go with Godzilla (4wd dyno dynamics, Mark knows a thing or two about r32 GTR's, you will see when you see his workshop car)

If it were northside then Id go with Mercury (4wd dyno dynamics) or Allstar (2wd dyno logic)

My opinion, if you got a 4wd vechicle, then run it on a 4wd dyno... You want to run the car on the dyno (for tuning purposes) under the same load and usage conditions as though you were driving on the road in 4wd. Also it may also help diagnose or help point out any problems you might be having with the car.

For dyno comps its fine to pop a fuse to run level par with the GTST's in RWD, but for tuning a GTR.... Well its 4wd FTW :rofl:

You just asking to be sued.

yeah i got ya joshwa. im not really scared.

lol yeh, its an opinion, markii, why are they so bad?

dnt mean to hijack :woot:

last time i was ther with my GTiR. they dyno ran it got 120kw.. then tuned a std ecu (this is what they told me) and got 145kw. they said they replaced the plugs with platniums ($120 worth) even though i did NOT authorise it. they did it anyway. they said they replaced the leads they wer not. they said they did a compression test i doubt that cause i asked him what it got and rob just rattled off 140psi across all 4. he then said ill need to replace my fuel pump. i said fine whatever. already charged me for plugs which wer not needed (old plugs wer denso iridiums 3000kms old) i came around to pick up. still doin my damn car. they had 7-5pm with it. and i got it back at 6pm. cost all up $800 felt a fraction quicker. and i called back to pick up the old pump and leads and plugs and he sayed he thru them out even though he said 'ill put them aside'

on top of that. as soon as i paid $800 cash he became all rude and obnoxious. called my GTiR a POS \

he said. '145kw is alright for that POS u got' what tuner says that about his own work.

145kw was runed on 10psi..

how the hell did the said awesome shop tune an unchipped ECU. claim they replaced leads. replaced 3000km old plugs without authorising. then take their time finishing it off. and then have the nerve to be rude after they got ther money.

that is why i do not ike ABC workshop.. pm me for the name.

i now do all work myself apart from anything requiring a dyno. dnt trust dodgy fooks with my cars no more.

ok well. i realise that i shouldnt put names and point fingers. so if a mod wants to edit my post im cool with it. ill play nicer next time

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
